It just keeps going on, with or without notice!

My time in Ontario is drawing to a close. I head back to Toronto tomorrow afternoon (I've been in Ottawa since mid-May). I'll be in Toronto for a week and then....I'm back home!!!

I'm so excited to be going back home. Being away from Winnipeg for the majority of this year has caused me to miss it heaps. I miss my church. I miss SHOP. I miss the community that I have from both places. I miss all of my friends...the ones who, regardless of how I'm feeling, are interested in my life and the things I'm learning every day. I miss my parents and my family! I'm missing IHOP, Kansas City and all my KC peeps lots too.

Long story short...I miss my life.

However, that doesn't mean that I didn't have a good time being away from it all. I absolutely LOVE my family out here and they've been really supportive, generous and helpful in many ways for me.

Actually, a quick time out for a brief mention of my family. My family rocks:)...both sides. We're all close-knit and there for each other whenever we need it. This doesn't mean my immediate family alone (Mom, Dad, 2 sisters)...this is everyone (aunts, uncles, cousins and the like). When I'm out here in Ontario, it's like I'm still at home in the fact that my aunts and uncles take care of me like their own children. We all love each other tons and I'm grateful to God for placing me in a family like this. Once again...my family rocks!

Anywho, as mentioned in another post , I've been out here to decide on school and on whether or not I'm actually moving out here (which is rather sad to think about right now). It seems like what I wanted to happen will be happening.

Though not admitted yet, Seneca College has set up a couple entrance tests for me to take. I feel confident that I'll be able to do them well and in turn receive an invitation to do schooling there. So for now I'll say that I will be moving to Toronto in August, doing school and living with my sister and my cousin Krystal as well.

That means that time will again be brief in Winnipeg and then I'm gone for an extended period of time before any visiting. So I will take the time that I'm back and use it as wisely as I can. It's gonna be hard to say goodbye somewhat permanently, but I'm accepting this as another season of life and moving forward with a cry for "grace, grace" to endure. God has been faithful through it all and I know He'll continue to be faithful. All my trust is in Him whether I see clearly or not. He's so good to me:)

I'm excited! Let the next season in life commence!
